New Mood Review by Onnit Labs
02-04-2013 4:14 AM
Here is a my ongoing review of New Mood by Onnit Labs. I know that people on this forum love the specifics. So I'll give them just that with the review. If you don't care about the nerdy parts skip the Ingredients section.
Website description:
New MOODâ„¢ by Onnitâ„¢ Labs is a serotonin-boosting supplement aimed at elevating a positive affective state and promoting restful sleep. The New MOODâ„¢ formula includes neurotransmitter precursors with the co-factor vitamin B6, catalyzing the synthesis of serotonin in the brain. Additionally, four natural extracts, with a long tradition of reducing stress and combating poor sleep, are paired with two essential vitamins and magnesium to promote a mental state of calmness and well-being.
Ingredients:
5-HTP: Direct precursor of the neurotransmitter serotonin, aids in positive mood.
L-Tryptophan: Found commonly in turkey, aids in restfulness and converts to 5-HTP."
Magnesium: Calming, anti-stress mineral helpful for muscular hydration."
Vitamin B-6: Vital for the conversion of 5-HTP to serotonin and myriad other reactions."
Niacin: Essential vasodilator, brings nutrient rich blood flow to the skin and brain."
Vitamin D-3: The "sunlight" vitamin, linked to overall health and positive mood."
Chamomile: The most popular relaxation herb in the world."
Valerian Root: A clinically investigated sleep inducing nutrient."
Lemon Balm: A mild traditional mood-enhancing herb that is part of the mint family."
Jujube: A traditional anti-stress and relaxation extract, also known as zyzyphus."
My sleep schedule is wack. I've always had some type of sleeping issue, I think part of it is genetic since my mother has sleeping pills but I can't confirm that. I sleep 6 hours most of the time and I'm okay but I have problems going to bed at night and sometimes end up sleeping at 5-6 am more frequently lately. On busy days/ big projects days I've ignored sleep entirely because I won't wake up on time and wait till the end of the day and sleep 14+ hours. I didn't have a humidifier in my room and that was havoc on my sleep. I forgot how much humidity in the air can help sleeping.I'm living in cold climate midwest and the heat in the house takes out the humdity in the air.
So last night I took 1 Alpha Brain Pill in the early evening( 6 hours before taking new mood) , had a humidifier blasting in my room and decided I was restless so I took 2 new mood Pills to calm down and fall asleep.
Holy shit was this combo effective for sleeping peacefully, the last thing I remember was turning off the lights and curling up in my comforter. I only slept for 5 hours but it was super deep sleep. A friend called and woke me up but I was calm. It felt like I just woke up from a trance. It was definitely a zen effect, I was still feeling new mood because I'm a grumpy person when I wake due to lack of good sleep. It chilled me out and I was suprised at the effectiveness of it. I had no problem getting out of bed either. I almost never get sleep this good even compared to hibernating for longer periods.Although this isn't an every day product I am going to use it to help me regulate my sleep schedule and calm down from stressful situations. It was different than just taking magnesium because I've taken 500 mg of magnesium to help me sleep and it didn't feel like this.
I'll continue the testing anytime I'm stressed out but this was surprisingly effective in relaxing and increasing quality of sleep.
Fear is the greatest obstacle to learning but fear is your best friend. Fear is like fire, if you learn to control it, you let it work for you: it can warm you in the winter, give you light when you are in the dark, and produce energy. If you don’t control it, it’ll destroy you and everything around you.You must understand Fear so you can manipulate it, because if you don’t you won’t be able to achieve your objective or save your life. - Cus D'Amato (The trainer that made Mike Tyson a Champion)

I have new mood as well but personally, I haven't felt anything extraordinary or that different.

When I used new mood that first time it was a combination of 1 Alpha brain earlier on and new mood. Taking it on an empty stomach will make a difference.
See if amping up the magnesium does anything for you, magnesium might help you sleep. It's a very natural tired with magnesium, you can fight it if you must but it'll help take you to sleep. It already has magnesium in it but I haven't seen any negative side effects or read anything that warns people about it.
